Recently, Yanhe Technology and Comospace signed a strategic cooperation agreement to jointly establish the Joint Laboratory for Space Computing and Energy, focusing on the deep integration of space-based intelligent computing and advanced photovoltaic energy systems. The collaboration will support the advancement of the Tiansuan Project and the development of next-generation space computing infrastructure.
The two parties will jointly advance key technologies for space energy and computing systems, including prototype development, in-orbit verification, system integration, and application scenario design. The project will also accelerate the development of a space supercomputing ground simulation system and the “Tiansuan-1” space supercomputing node, integrating large-area flexible solar arrays to build a global space computing network, with launches planned to begin in 2027.
Comospace plans to establish a space supercomputing center by 2030, consisting of more than ten satellites deployed in a sun-synchronous orbit. The system will integrate three core modules: energy, computing, and communication, enabling large-scale computing power in orbit.
Both sides have already completed integration verification of a space supercomputing prototype and energy subsystem. The prototype integrates heterogeneous computing resources including CPU, GPU, NPU, and FPGA, providing AI computing power at the 10 POPS level and supporting flexible deployment of in-orbit applications.
The energy system is equipped with Yanhe’s next-generation “Nebula” flexible perovskite solar arrays, featuring over 20% conversion efficiency, a specific power of approximately 500 W/kg, and an in-orbit lifetime exceeding eight years, providing efficient and reliable energy supply for space computing systems.
As space computing emerges as a new infrastructure for the digital economy and commercial space industry, efficient and scalable energy systems are becoming critical. With its high efficiency, lightweight structure, and strong adaptability to extreme environments, perovskite photovoltaics offer a promising solution for next-generation space energy systems.
Through the Joint Laboratory, Yanhe Technology and Comospace will continue to deepen collaboration in technology development, ecosystem building, and industrial deployment, accelerating the implementation of the Tiansuan Project and supporting the development of future space computing networks.
Comospace is a leading provider of space-based intelligent application system solutions, focusing on the development of space computing infrastructure and intelligent computing ecosystems.
